Our Favorite Vegetarian Thanksgiving Recipes

I’m not really a sappy person, but something about Thanksgiving brings out my sentimental side. Gratitude! Family! Traditions! So many other holidays are now over-shadowed by consumerism, obligatory greeting cards, and massive amounts of candy, but Thanksgiving is still about sharing a meal with loved ones and taking time to be grateful for what you have. These vegetarian entrees for thanksgiving only make it more special.

Recipe Title: Quinoa-Stuffed Acorn Squash Rings

Description: The best way to tackle the vegetarian-at-Thanksgiving issue is to serve a vegetarian main dish that works as a side dish for everyone else. These squash rings are the perfect example of that. And since the squash is sliced into smaller rings instead of halves, you’ll still have plenty of room on your plate (and in your belly!) for mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce and pie. – Kiersten
